Question:

n/2 - 2n/16 = 3/8

Steps:

1. Simplify 2n/16: n/8 since you can divide 16 by 2. Then put it back into the equation:

n/2 - n/8 = 3/8

Then, find the least common multiple (LCM): 8

2. Multiply 8 to both sides

n/2 * 8 - n/8 * 8 = 3/8 * 8

3. Simplify,

4n - n = 3
3n = 3

4. Then, divide both sides by 3

3n/3 = 3/3
n = 1 is the answer!

Hope that helped!!!

n/2 - 2n/16 = 3/8 it's basic algebra.

Step 1 :

n/2 = 8n/16 multiply both numerator and denominator by 8.

3/8 = 6/16 multiply both numerator and denominator by 2.

Step 2 : we can add the fractions since now they have the same denominator

8n/16 -2n/16 = 6/16

(8n - 2n -6)/16 = 0

(6n - 6)/16 = 0

6n - 6 = 0

6n = 6

n = 6/6 = 1 This is the n value

Answer n = 1

Hope this helps!

A nutrition laboratory tested 25 "reduced sodium" hotdogs of a certain brand, finding that the mean sodium content is 310 mg wit

inessss [21]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is $295.9 < \mu< 324.1$

A 95% level of confidence mean that there is 95% chance that the true population mean will be in this interval

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is $n = 25$

The mean is $\= x = 310 \ mg$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 36 \ mg$

Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = 100 - 95$

=> $\alpha = 5\%$

=> $\alpha = 0.05$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ from the normal distribution table , the value is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.05 }{2} } = 1.96$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

substituting values

$E = 1.96 * \frac{36 }{\sqrt{25} }$

$E = 14.1$

The 95% level of confidence interval is mathematically represented as

$\= x - E < \mu$

substituting values

$310- 14.1 < \mu< 310+ 14.1$

$295.9 < \mu< 324.1$

The 95% level of confidence mean that there is 95% chance that the true population mean will be in this interval

Two forces with magnitudes 300 pounds and 450 pounds, with an angle of 60° between them, act upon an object. What is the approxi

kifflom [539]

Answer:

653.84 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the computation simple, assume the 450 lb force acts along the x axis in the positive direction.

The x component of the 300 lb force is 300cos(60)=150 lbs.

The y component of the 300 lb force is 300sin(60)= $300*\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} =259.81\\$ lbs.

The x component of the total force is the sum of the x components of the two forces.

Fx=150+450=600

Fy=259.81

The net force is obtained using the Pythagorean theorem, since the two force components are perpindicular.

F=Sqrt(Fx^2+Fy^2)=Sqrt(360000+67501.24)=Sqrt(427501)=653.84 lbs.

What is the distance between (-5, 5) and (1, -2)

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{85}\text{, or about 9.22 units}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the distance formula to solve.

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2 +(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(1--5)^2 +(-2-5)^2}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(6)^2 +(-7)^2}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{36+49}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{85}\text{, or about 9.22 units}$
